Satanic Musings: The Slave Mentality

I was surfing the web, and reading some Satanism forums this morning. I was shocked to see how many people there are in Satanism who will blindly follow people who are clearly using and manipulating them.

Some people have a deep psychological need to be a slave, they fall into the role without even realizing it.They like to have other people do their thinking for them. Even in Satanism, some people are unable to escape the slave mentality. Slaves will always look for a master no matter what religion they follow.

Some of the same people who refuse to kneel down to any God are perfectly happy to kneel down and swear their allegiance to a mere mortal, as long as they call themselves high priest, high priestess, guru, or teacher.

I agree with you. Here’s the thing, I don’t have an issue with the Master/slave relationship in general. If someone wants to be a slave and submit to someone else that’s their choice, but most people aren’t making that choice consciously. Many people fall into the herd mentality and follow blindly almost automatically. It just surprises me how prevalent this attitude is even in Satanism, which is a religion that actively preaches against having just such an attitude.

Satanism preaches to do what must be done in order to have personal gain. And you’re absolutely right. Herd mentality is widely present amongst Satanists. It is sad, but you cannot expect to get rid of such thing in so little time. It’s hard to be conscious of our own herd mentality, for once we gain awareness of this status, it stops being herd mentality, it starts being a choice. Some masters, even, are a victim of this viciously society induced disease that is herd mentality.

Great Resource!

RJ offers a very knowledgeable, experienced, and level-headed view, which can be a little hard to find in the LHP community. While I don't necessarily 100% agree with everything he says (who wants to listen to someone who thinks exactly like you?), he does make me think more about my personal practice and connection with Satan. A great resource for anyone interested in theistic Satanism!

Excellent

I've never been the one to listen to podcasts but this is by far the best subject and host I've heard. He has a great grasp on satanism and I agree with pretty much everything I've heard so far. He need to do more episodes because I listened to everyone in a matter of hours. Great work my friend. I will recommend this to all satanists I know.

Genuine and fascinating

RJ comes across as very sincere and passionate. He discusses his religious beliefs in a way that is fascinating and free from the typical absurdities and immaturity often encountered in the occult community.
